  • An alternative approach is to delivery therapies directly into brain tumors or tumor infiltrated brain tissue.
  • Direct brain delivery requires the use of a delivery system. There are no delivery devices currently that are specifically indicated for delivery of a therapeutic to brain tissue (only to the cerebrospinal fluid spaces). This is because there are no therapeutics yet approved for direct brain delivery.

Abstract

Divers modes de réalisation comprennent un système pour coupler une aiguille à un orifice. Le système comprend un port et une aiguille. L'orifice comprend un réservoir et une boîte de verrouillage disposée à l'intérieur de la cavité et délimitant une ouverture de verrouillage. Le réservoir comprend une membrane et une base couplée à la membrane, qui délimitent ensemble une cavité. Le réservoir est conçu pour être implanté sous la peau d'une personne. L'aiguille délimite une lumière s'étendant le long d'un axe longitudinal d'aiguille. L'aiguille comprend une clé disposée à l'intérieur de la lumière. La clé est mobile d'une première position vers une seconde position. Une partie de la clé s'étend davantage dans une direction radialement vers l'extérieur dans la seconde position que dans la première position. Une extrémité distale de l'aiguille peut être disposée à l'intérieur de l'ouverture de verrouillage de telle sorte que la clé peut être couplée à la boîte de verrouillage lorsqu'elle est dans la seconde position.
